Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Can SMAJ4750A-TP be used as a direct replacement for SMAZ27-TP?
A: SMAJ4750A-TP is electrically compatible as a direct substitute. Both parts share identical nominal zener voltage (27 V), tolerance (±5%), power rating (1 W), and operating temperature range (-65°C to 150°C). The primary difference is impedance specification: SMAJ4750A-TP specifies 35 Ohms maximum versus 15 Ohms on SMAZ27-TP. Reverse leakage current is higher at 5 µA on SMAJ4750A-TP compared to 500 nA on SMAZ27-TP. Both are RoHS3 compliant and supplied in Tape & Reel packaging.
Q: What is the advantage of using 1SMA5935BT3G over SMAZ27-TP?
A: The 1SMA5935BT3G provides a higher power rating of 1.5 W compared to 1 W on SMAZ27-TP, offering increased thermal dissipation capability. Both parts maintain identical 27 V nominal zener voltage and ±5% tolerance. The 1SMA5935BT3G exhibits reverse leakage current of 500 nA, matching the SMAZ27-TP specification. Inventory availability is significantly higher at 75300 pieces. The forward voltage specification differs at 1.5 V versus 1.2 V.
Q: Are there tolerance differences between substitute parts?
A: Yes. SMAZ27-TP, SMAJ4750A-TP, 1SMA5935BT3G, and SMAZ27-13-F all specify ±5% tolerance. SML4750-E3/61 specifies ±10% tolerance, which is wider and may not be suitable for applications requiring tighter voltage regulation. SML4750A-E3/61 matches the ±5% tolerance specification.
Q: What packaging format differences exist among substitute parts?
A: SMAZ27-TP and SMAJ4750A-TP are supplied in Tape & Reel (TR) format. 1SMA5935BT3G is supplied in Tape & Reel format. SML4750-E3/61, SML4750A-E3/61 are supplied in Cut Tape (CT) format. SMAZ27-13-F is supplied in Cut Tape & Digi-Reel format. All parts use DO-214AC (SMA) package configuration and are compatible with Surface Mount assembly processes.
Q: Do all substitute parts meet RoHS3 compliance?
A: Yes. All listed substitute parts—SMAJ4750A-TP, 1SMA5935BT3G, SML4750-E3/61, SML4750A-E3/61, and SMAZ27-13-F—are RoHS3 compliant. All parts also maintain REACH Unaffected status and carry EAR99 ECCN classification.
Q: Which substitute part has the lowest impedance specification?
A: SMAZ27-TP and SMAZ27-13-F both specify 15 Ohms maximum impedance. All other substitute parts specify 35 Ohms maximum impedance or 23 Ohms for 1SMA5935BT3G.
Q: Can SML4750-E3/61 be used in applications requiring ±5% tolerance?
A: SML4750-E3/61 specifies ±10% tolerance, which exceeds the ±5% tolerance requirement of SMAZ27-TP. This part is not suitable for applications with strict voltage regulation requirements. SML4750A-E3/61 from the same manufacturer provides ±5% tolerance and is the appropriate alternative.
Q: What is the moisture sensitivity level for all substitute parts?
A: SMAZ27-TP, 1SMA5935BT3G, SML4750-E3/61, SML4750A-E3/61, and SMAZ27-13-F all specify Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) 1, indicating unlimited moisture sensitivity with no special storage or handling requirements.
